How did you trigger that (what did you do before that)?
Did it eventually stop using the CPU (without rebooting)
i.e. is this a temporary problem?
If you reboot, can you get it again to consume that much CPU
i.e. is the problem (easily) re-producable?
Could you file a bug to Maemo bugzilla about this (with the above info)
and send link to the bug here?

Not sure, but I think Mediaplayer gets the files in its "library"
from the crawler database.
